Article 2, Section 2.2 of the Master Terms for Trust Agreements of the Tax-Qualified Nuclear Decommissioning Master Trust Agreement and the Non-Tax Qualified Nuclear Decommissioning Master Trust Agreement by and between ZionSolutions, LLC

("ZionSolutions") and The Bank of New York Mellon as Trustee provides that distributions will be made in accordance with Article 2 of the Master Terms. The Master Terms for Trust Agreements Article 2: "Establishment of Separate Trusts and Dispositive Provisions", Section 2.2 "Payment ofNuclear Decommissioning Costs", paragraph (d), subparagraph (iv), provides that except for administrative costs and taxes as provided in Sections 2.5 and 4.1 of the Master Terms, no disbursement or payments for decommissioning costs shall be made from the trusts unless the Trustee or ZionSolutions provides thirty (30) days prior written notice~ of such disbursement or payment, to the NRC Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.

This letter provides the Director of the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation written notification of The Bank of New York Mellon's intent, upon receipt of a completed Disbursement Certificate from ZionSolutions, to make disbursements from the nuclear decommissioning trusts of ZNPS, Units 1 and 2. The disbursements will pay for decommissioning costs, as incurred, not to exceed (without a supplemental 30-day notice to the Director) $5,886,074 at ZNPS, for both Units 1 and 2 combined, for the period June 2.019 through November 2019. ZionSolutions has confirmed (or prior to the corresponding disbursement shall have confirmed) to us that the costs to be disbursed are legitimate decomrhissioning expenses.

We plan to begin making disbursements from the nuclear decommissioning trusts for ZNPS Units 1 and 2, in the amount described above, thirty (30) days following the date of this letter, in the absence of any written notice of objection from the NRC.
